| Defect | In the engine, due to inappropriate design of the piston and top ring, the gap between the piston and top ring is wide. If the engine repeatedly decelerates using engine braking from a high-revolution state, engine oil may be drawn into the combustion chamber and burn, potentially increasing oil consumption. As a result, abnormal noise may occur due to poor oil lubrication. If use is continued, the engine may be damaged while driving, leading to the rear wheel locking and causing a fall, or potentially a fire. |
